Common questions in Stanley Crook
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Stanley Crook
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are lots of chips and rust spots and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to most of the day.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access

Related advice
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Never use suction bath mats
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Have chips seen to early
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Holes rusted through the metal
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
